This is my 1st time using glutinous rice flour in cupcakes. I happened to come across the recipe when I was searching the web. This cupcake tastes like 'Nian gao'. It is soft, sticky & slightly chewy with the red bean flavor.

I made some pumpkin bread this afternoon. I guessed I had added too much pumpkin puree which resulted in a very soft dough (all thanks to my 'Kiasu' Sporean nature ;P).

I cooked some pumpkin with sugar to serve as my pumpkin buns fillings. As for my pumpkin bread, I kneaded in a tsp of cocoa powder to one of the doughs & left the other dough plain. I shaped them into long ropes & left it in my loaf tin for proofing. I sprinkled some crumble fillings on top before I sent it to the oven to bake.The texture of the bread excellent.. so soft & light! The fun part is that each slice of bread has got its own unique pattern. Take a look at the swirl & marbling effect...

Berries again? Oh, I'm falling in love with berries *^_^* I bought some berries recently as it was on offered price in Giant.I used strawberries & blueberries in this tart. This tart is great for dessert with a pot of tea & it tastes even better the next day after refrigeration.

About Me

I'm a petite lady who loves to play with flour, eggs, sugar & butter during my free time. I simply love & is addicted to baking! *^_^*
This addiction started initially from cakes, now it has expanded to include cookies, cupcakes, breads and pastries. The joy that I got from baking and seeing loved ones finishing up the creations is indescribable.
